Gooday Erika It’s your Cornish mum here Wow you totally smashed that competition Glad you got to do that before you left Well done girl 🎉 We are missing you guys already here in Cornwall Sending you my love always xxxx
Erika you are amazing and so brave for taking on this challenge 3 days prior to the comp! So proud of you for pushing through and giving it your best 💕💕
Skills for just entering, that's half the battle. There's always a bigger fish. You totally deserve a massive well done. Great all encompassing trip/journey/video.
Aw Erika!!! This is super cool, like, why the funk not enter a comp?! So glad I’ve found your channel; I’ve loved surfing my whole life but never actually properly learned! Lol 😂 I think I’ve watched so many videos/films/documentaries/movies/comps I could probably surf just from muscle memory through the watching! Booking a private lesson in October 🤙🏼🌊🏄🏽♀️🏄🏽♀️🏄🏽♀️ #inspired
Oh My Word ERIKA ….. you were fantastic and well done you for getting out of your comfort zone to enter the comp 🙌 It was amazing to see thank you for sharing this with your FANS x
Yey, well done you......you really fitted in so there 👌...the nervous poos really helped I think . Good waves for the semi, the next comp you'll be a bit more relaxed and the judges will see the real Erika style 🤙🤙🌊🏄♀️🤙
hey erika!! you did awesome!! that first day was crazy big! if i saw the waves were that big i would’ve turned around. i have been in one surf contest. i placed 4th out if 7 and it was very nerve wracking. i fell on my first wave and immediately when you fall i just started to freak out under water. so i think one tip i have is to just stay calm. know that we all fall and everyone had been in that same boat. i am very proud of you for getting out there! you definitely feel very proud and relieved of yourself once you get it over with!! maybe if you come down to california we can surf sometime!
Hey Ryan! Thanks so much! Yeah the waves were soo big and challenging but so happy I pushed through and did it! I defo think I’ll be more relaxed next time in a contest! Yes if I come to Cali, for sure I’d love to go for a surf with you! 🏄♀️🏄♀️
Fair play Erica! Well done! I can totally relate to that anxiety when you see the surf rolling in…I get it everytime I see there’s other surfers who I could potentially decapitate
I loved this video and got even a little bit nervous while watching you prepare before your heat haha. Nicely done, your first competition. You did a really good job!
Erika I respect you so much for doing something out of your comfort zone and killing it! You inspire me a lot to keep surfing and one day enter a competition myself. Sending love from California
Thank you for this- you're first video that popped up when doing research on new to competing. I have my first local surf competition tomorrow here in San Diego and I'm nervous out of my mind. So thank you for helping calm my nerves a bit. Wish me luck. And mahalo for your courage and humility. 🤙🏽
Hi erika and Jessie I met you at widemouth Bay in the summer I was on a sup I just shouted your name like a crazy person nice to meet you both and have a chat please enter more comps you was amazing and should be so proud of yourself loved this vlog x
You're hella funny! I die laughing at all of your videos haha! Those waves looked SO BIG!! Especially on a longboard, I feel like they seem 10x scarier!! Congrats on making it to the semis and getting out there!! Out of curiosity, when did you start surfing?
Haha thanks sav!! Yeah longboards and big waves are not a good match haha😂 started surfing 7 years ago (I was 18) but on and off! Then got really into it during lockdown 3 years ago x
You did so good, you should be really proud ❤ That surf on the first day was f’in huge!! Not sure I would of gone out in it 😬 Currently down your way enjoying a great week of surf and sunshine ☀️ One more surf tomorrow morning, maybe at your local then it’s home 😩
Bigger waves... Once you stand up - they suddenly looks so much smaller and manageable. Yeah I had you 3rd. I've watched a few of your vids now. I like the content so far, I hope you do well with your channel. I was in a surf comp in 93 with Plymouth College of Art and Design. We were only a small college and we couldn't get 4 surfers for the national student comp, so we got a 'Ringer' he was a school kid who was due to join the college the following summer. The comp was at Fistral as well, and we had a local Tommy Green who surfed the beach all his life. The ringer (Can't remembers his name) was a small bloke he may have been known as 'Rat man'? The waves were small and him along with the local boy got us into the finals as I recall, but then someone who knew 'Ratman' dobbed us in and we weren't allowed to compete in the final, I reckon if weren't for that Tommy 'Local Boy' Green would have won the comp for Plymouth that year. I was gutted for him.
Amazing!! 🙌 You’ve probably said this a thousand times in your videos but I’m new to the channel and to surfing so I wanna know… how long is your longboard? Thanks!
also: love the surf forecast text that you added for each day! If its not too much work you should do that for all your surf vlogs, I think it really adds something
Gooday Erika
It’s your Cornish mum here
